Two patients underwent liver transplantation of blood type incompatibility were collected from Fuzhou General Hospital of Nanjing Military Area Command of Chinese PLA. Case 1: A male who had primary hepatic carcinoma underwent classic orthotopic liver transplantation; the blood of donor was type A, and the blood of recipient was type O. Case 2: A female having history of type B hepatitis underwent classic orthotopic liver transplantation due to pregnancy combining with severe liver disease and coagulation disorder; the blood of donor was type B, and the blood of recipient was type O. Immunohistochemistry staining was used to observe pathological changes and deposition of various immunoglobulin and complement in two cases following liver transplantation of blood type incompatibility under optic microscope and to investigate diagnostic standard of humoral rejection. The results showed that linear or granular depositions of IgG, IgM, IgA, C4c, C4d, and Clq were found in endothelial cells of hepatic sinusoid, suggesting that IgG and other immunoglobulin exhibited a strongly positively diffused deposition on the endothelial cells of hepatic sinusoid, while expression of C4d and other complements was also found. All those mentioned above could be considered as evidences to prove onset of humoral rejection in transplanted liver tissue.

Objective To explore the clinical efficacy,adverse effect and prognosis of infliximab in treatment of the patients with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA).Methods Thirty-two cases of infliximab-treated JIA patients and 30 cases of JIA control patients were investigated in this prospective study,and their tender joint count (TJC),swollen joint count (SJC),erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR),C-reactive protein (CRP),visual analog scale for general health (GH),disease activity score (DAS) 28,as well as adverse reactions of treatment and follow-up outcomes were analyzed.The infliximab-treated patients were intravenously infused with infliximab at the low dose of ＜ 5 mg/(kg · time) or the high dose of ≥ 5 mg/(kg · time) in 0,2nd,6th,14th,22nd,30th week.The JIA control patients were treated with conventional therapy.Results The treatment of infliximab ameliorated the TJC,SJC,ESR,CH,CRP and DAS28 of JIA patients.In the dynamical analysis of these clinical indexes of the infliximab-treated JIA patients,the index of SJC was found to fall firstly in the 2nd week,the indexes of TJC,ESR,CH and DAS28 were found to decline secondly at 6th week,the indexes of TJC,SJC,ESR,CRP and DAS28 continued dropping till 22nd week,and only the index of GH progressively declined to 30th week.The high-dose infliximab-treated group had lower levels of ESR,GH and CRP than the low-dose infliximab-treated group (t =2.14,3.04,2.33,P =0.04,0.01,0.04).But there were no statistical difference in TJC,SJC,DAS28 and the incidence of recent adverse reactions between the high and low infliximab dose groups.In the infliximab treated group,2 cases of patients (6.25％) failed in the therapy of infliximab;9 cases of patients (28.13％) continued therapy with infliximab to 46th-62nd week; 7 cases of patients (21.88％) stopped therapy with infliximab in the 30th week had good improvement of joint symptoms and inflammatory indexes; 14 cases of patients (43.75％) relapsed and retreated by infliximab after cease the first course of treatment; 1 case of patient died of severe chickenpox infection after therapy with infliximab was ceased.Conclusions Infliximab can alleviate the joint symptoms,inflammatory indexes and DAS28 of JIA patients,and is an effective and safe therapy for JIA patients in the short-term study.

Objective To study the predictive validity of general movements (GMs) assessment for motor development outcomes in neonatal purulent meningitis.Methods According to the inclusion criteria,excluding other cerebral injury diseases,a total of 34 cases of neonatal purulent meningitis,who took part in our follow-up clinic after discharged from neonatal intensive care unit of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University from December 2012 to December 2013,were confirmed as the participants.Infants' GMs recordings during writhing movements period (at least once at 0-3 months) and fidgety movements period (at least once at 3-5 months) were collected and assessed.Motor development outcomes was determined at least after one year old with Alberta Infant Motor Scale(AIMS).Predictive validity in each period were calculated with AIMS results as the golden standard.Results Among the 34 cases,there were 24 males and ten females,and four preterm infants and 30 term babies.The age at follow-up was from 12 months to 23 months old.Ultimately,one (3％) infant with spastic cerebral palsy,seven (21％) with motor retardation and 26 (76％) with normal motor development were diagnosed.The sensitivity,specificity,positive predictive value,negative predictive value,Youden index and residual error rate for the writhing movements period in prediction of motor development outcomes were 87.5％,46.2％,33.3％,95.6％,33.7％ and 12.5％,respectively.And the corresponding figures for the fidgety movements period were 87.5％,88.5％,70.0％,95.8％,76.0％ and 12.5％,respectively.Conclusions GMs assessment could be an accurate predictive tool for later motor developmental outcomes in neonates with purulent meningitis,especially in fidgety movements period.

Objective To investigate the effects of hyperbaric oxygen preconditioning (HBOP) on brain edema, inflammatory reaction and neuronal cell apoptosis induced by experimental hemorrhage in rats. Method Eighteen male Spraque-Dawley rats, weighing 300 - 350 g,received five successive sessions of HBOP with 3 atmosphere absolute pressure and 100% O2 one hour daily for five successive days, and other eighteen rats received five successive sessions of pretreatment with one atmosphere absolute pressure, air, one hour daily for five successive days. Twenty-four hours after the final pre-conditioning, rats received an infusion of 100 μL autologous blood into the basal ganglion. Seventy-two hours later, rats were sacrificed for brain edema measurements in 12 rats of each group. The histopathological changes around the hematoma were observed microscopically, and the neuronal cell apoptosis was detected by using the terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated nick end labeling (TUNEL) in six rats of each group. Data of brain water content were analyzed by using Stata 7.0 software and statistical analysis was carried out by two-tailed Student t -test. Results Compared with the control group, HBOP significantly attenuated brain edema 72 hours after intra-cerebral hemorrhage in experimental rats (81. 6± 0. 7% vs. 82. 8± 0.9%, P < 0.01). Inflammatory cell infiltration and neuronal cell apoptosis were also significantly decreased in the HBOP group. Conclusions HBOP protects the rats against brain edema formation, and quells inflammatory reaction and neuronal cell apoptosis following intra-cerebral hemorrhage in experimental rats.

Telomeres are protective caps located at the ends of human chromosomes. Telomeres shorten with each successive cell di-vision in normal human cells, whereas they are continuously elongated by human telomerase in over 85%of tumors. This simple and attractive difference steers the development of anticancer drugs targeting telomeres and telomerase. Many promising current telo-mere/telomerase-targeting agents, such as GRN163L and GV1001, showed good therapeutic effect both in preclinical studies and phaseⅠ/Ⅱclinical trials. These agents have even entered phaseⅢclinical trials in patients with various tumors. Most therapeutics are more effective when used in combination with standard chemotherapies. Moreover, pharmacological interference with tumor-cell telomere biology to reduce telomere length and/or telomere stability could enhance the effectiveness and safety of radiotherapy. Therapeutics targeting telomere/telomerase may play a key role in radiotherapy in the era of personalized medicine in the future.

To investigate whether human umbilical cord plasma (HUP) can be used to culture human cord blood mesenchymal stem cells (HUCMSCs), we collected 20 surplus HUP. After being treated with salting out and diasysis, the HUP were used to culture HUCMSCs as 10% volume, and compared with fetal bovine serum (FBS). Morphological characteristics, growth curve and reproductive activity of HUCMSCs cells were observed. The concentration of bFGF and noggin secreted by HUCMSCs cultured with HUP and FBS medium were detected by ELISA. It was found that compared to FBS, the morphology, reproductive activity and characteristic of HUCMSCs cell cultured with HUP were not distinctively different from FBS. The concentration of bFGF in HUP group was significantly higher than that of FBS group, and the concentration of noggin was also different in the two groups. So we concluded that HUP could be used to culture HUCMSCs for a long-time, and the HUP mediumcoild could be more suitable for the culture of human embryonic stem cell (hESC).

Objective To review the trends of survival rates and complications in extremely low birth weight (ELBW) infants and to improve the prognosis of ELBW infants.Method From January 1999 to December 2015,ELBW infants in our hospital were retrospectively studied.Their survival rates and complications were compared among groups with different birth weight,and the risk factors for survival were identified using multivariate unconditional logistic regression analysis.Result A total of 243 ELBW infant were collected.The median gestational age of ELBW infant was 27.3 weeks (23 ～ 34 weeks),and their median birth weight was 890 g (490 ～ 995 g).Excluding 40 cases refused treatment,the cure and survival rates of the remaining 203 ELBW infants were 43.8％ (89/203) and 65.0％ (132/203),respectively.The survival rate in ELBW infant with birth weight ＜ 600 g was 0/3,increased to 70.8％ (68/96) when birth weight was 900 ～ 999 g,with an ascending trend with increased birth weight (x2 trend =12.673,P ＜0.001).The most common complications of 243 cases were neonatal respiration distress syndrome [87.7％ (213/243)],sepsis [45.3％ (110/243)],intraventricular hemorrhage [37.4％ (91/243)],bronchopulmonary dysplasia [36.6％ (89/243)] and pheumonia [36.6％ (89/243)].The incidence of complications (including intracerebral hemorrhage and hydrocephalus),decreased with increased birth weight.Multivariate unconditional logistic regression analysis found that birth weight below 800 g (＜ 700 g:OR =22.333,95％ CI 1.493 ～ 334.148,P =0.024;700 ～ 799 g:OR =3.573,95％ CI 1.075 ～ 11.874,P =0.038),stage Ⅲ necrotizing enterocolitis (OR =8.803,95％ CI 1.308 ～ 59.244,P =0.025),stage Ⅲ and Ⅳ of intraventricular hemorrhage (OR =8.902,95％ CI 1.127 ～ 70.338,P =0.038) and mechanical ventilation (OR =3.597,95％ CI 1.043 ～ 12.410,P =0.043) were risk factors affecting the ELBW infant's survival.Conclusion As birth weight increases,the survival rate also increases,and the rate of complications decreases.Birth weight,stage Ⅲ necrotizing enterocolitis,stage Ⅲ and Ⅳ intraventricular hemorrhage and mechanical ventilation are risk factors for the ELBW infant's survival.

Objective To investigate the changes of the expressions of heat shock proteins 70 (HSP70) and insulin and HSP70 protect effect on the gastric mucosa of rats with scald injury, and explore the relationship between insulin and HSP70 . Methods With a model of 30 total body surface area (TBSA) full-thickness burned rats,the expression and distribution of HSP70 in the gastric mucosa was detected with immunohistochemical method and analyzed by a micro-image analysis system, and at the same time the pathological changes of the gastric mucosa tissue of each group were analyzed by Western blot and immunohistochemistry at the 3rd,6th,12th,24th and 48th hour postburn. Results The expression of HSP70 obviously decreased at the 48th hour post scald injury. The expression of HSP70 in the treatment group was significantly higher than that in the scalded group at most time points except the 12th(9.40±1.52,P＝0.065) hour and at equal parallel time［(6.80±1.10,8.60±0.55,10.80±1.64,11.40±1.34),P＜0.05］. The gastric mucosal injury index in the scalded group was significantly higher than that in the treatment group and at equal parallel time ［(4.05±0.36,11.97±1.15,20.98±2.83,13.92±0.94,1.60±0.55),P＜0.05］. In pathological observation, the control group manifested the intact gastric mucosal tissue formation, the scalded group showed obvious gastric mucosal tissue injury in the early phase of scald injury, while the treatment group showed less severe injury than the scald group. A positive correlationwas found in the gastric mucosal injury index and HSP70(r＝0.904,P＜0.01) and also between the serum glucose and HSP70(r＝0.961,P＜0.01).Conclusions Insulin increased the expression of HSP70 and decreased the gastric mucosal injury index in the gastric mucosal tissue of SD rats in the phase of scald injury. It may be one of the vital mechanisms of insulin protecting the gastric mucosal tissue.
